Favorite moment: Before doing "Feelin' Alright" he said people ask him why he does that Joe Cocker song, he then said "because I wrote that Joe Cocker song". @

Dave Mason and his band performed all of his hits. The music was great but the sound mixing was terrible, more later, Dave Mason's singing confirms that he still delivers with a smooth voice that is very easy to listen to. He ran though all of the favorites giving the audience exactly what they came for, his classic songs and more. He did a song from his new album, it was very good. He joked about his age and interacted with his band and the audience well. It was a very enjoyable performance from a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member held in a small venue, 850 people in attendance. Also, it was a benefit concert that raised over $25,000 for an Ocean City education fund. Considering the cost of tickets, only $30, and the number of people in attendance Dave Mason must have done this for next to free or for a very reasonable cost. Accolades to him!!!

Regrettably the evening was somewhat spoiled by the horrible sound mixing. Dave Mason's microphone was tied into the speakers on the stage ends and the backup singers voices were coming from the middle speaker. For those sitting in the front center we could not hear Dave Mason's voice very well. We heard the backup singers voices and at times the volume of their voices was actually way too loud. I have attended many very loud concerts, the backup singers voices was actually painful to the ears.

This brought the overall rating of the concert down to 3 stars, no reflection on Dave Mason.
